ANDREAS BITESNICH
Andreas H. Bitesnich is seen as one of the greatest photographers of our time. Especially in the area of nude photography, he counts among the best in the world. Andreas H. Bitesnich was born in Vienna in 1964. After secondary school, he completed a traineeship as a retail salesman. His passion for photography began with a visit to Milan where, inspired and captivated by the fashion photographs of a colleague, he acquired his first own camera. Since 1989, Andreas H. Bitesnich has devoted himself exclusively to photography and has been represented in group exhibitions and solo exhibitions worldwide in renowned galleries and museums such as the Museum for Decorative Arts and Crafts in Hamburg or the Kunsthaus Wien.
Bitesnich captures moments of indescribable beauty. In his successful artistic work, he uses his unmistakeable textures to create his famous nude photographs, numerous national and international advertising campaigns as well as portraits of famous contemporary figures such as Anthony Quinn, Leni Riefenstahl or Reinhold Messner. With his travel reports, the fine art photographer depicts movingly beautiful landscape settings and once again proves how versatile his photographic oeuvre is.
Andreas H. Bitesnich lives and works in Austria.
